Controversial Catholic singer, Sinead O’Connor–who you may remember as “that woman who ripped up the a photo of Pope John Paul II on TV” is currently on tour promoting her new album, “Theology.” The two-CD set consists of an acoustic and full-band version of 11 songs, most written by O’Connor herself, and based on passages from the Old Testament.
In a recent Beliefnet interview, O’Connor spoke about her favorite parts of the Bible. “My love is the books of the prophets. Particularly I love Isaiah and Jeremiah, but Jeremiah would be my favorite, above all. So, I’d read [Jeremiah], and just the language and the place it took me to would make me forget about anything that might be on my mind.”
Beliefnet has five copies of the album to give away. Want one?
